Programs

  • Maple
    a := proc (n) local x, y, t, k; if n = 0 then 1 elif n = 1 then 0 else x := 1; y := 0; for k from 2 to n do t := y; y := (k-1)*(x+y+k-3); x := t end do; y end if end proc;
  • Mathematica
    nn=23;Range[0,nn]!*CoefficientList[Series[Cosh[Log[1/(1-x)]-x],{x,0,nn}],x] (* Geoffrey Critzer, Jun 23 2014 *)

Formula

a(n+1) = n*(a(n) + a(n-1) + n - 2), a(0)=1, a(1)=0.
a(n) = (A000166(n) - n + 1)/2.
E.g.f.: cosh(log(1/(1-x)) - x). - Geoffrey Critzer, Jun 23 2014
